The newest 8 of 36. Open one to read it in full, with the developer's reply where there is one.
I have been looking for an app that shows images of variants on collections and couldn't find anything that worked. This app did exactly what I needed it to do. I also wanted to remove the images from the product page and they promptly customized it for me. Recommended.
We've been using this app for a few years now, it's really easy to use, it takes the hassle out of creating swatches and variant selectors and allows a variety of options to suit all our products. Their customer support is also quick and friendly, any issues (such as connecting the app after a theme change) were solved fast, even after hours as I'm in a different time zone!
This app is the absolute best app if you have varieties in your store. Without having to implement code or make things complicated, Vario takes care of all that. The icons that they use are adjustable so you can change them to fit your design. Also, there is a red line for sold-out products which is huge! This makes shopping and seeing what types of items are available for customers exactly as they should be. If you use variations, then you need this app. We had a little trouble initially, but the developers were there to help every step of the way until it was perfect. I highly recommend them and this app! Update: After close to three years, the app is still an important part of our online store. Easy to set up and makes our customers shopping experience easier.
Amazing team that supported us with the customisation we wanted. Prompt response and very helpful! Also nice design and simple to use that worked very well for us!
I loved the color variants I was able to use for my products but the app interferes with my theme and changes the product size variants in the cart which means customers are checking out with size XSmall after they may have chosen Large or Medium on the product page.
Prompt replies and great support team. Excellent and functional app, definitely helps to improve the appearance of the website. Support team is very helpful and responsive to my enquiries and I appreciate their effort in helping to fix the problems. Thank you!
Very easy to install and design swatches. The support staff helped with placement of the swatches in my theme in a prompt and courteous manner as well as fixed the collection swatches that didn't appear in my theme. We are very happy with the app.
Incredibly simple to set up, and works very well. The developers are responsive in resolving issues that come up. Now that the issue we raised is resolved, the app is working perfectly. Highly recommend this app!
